Romans 7:1-10
1Know ye notG50, brethrenG80, (forG1063 I speakG2980 to them that knowG1097 the lawG3551,) how thatG3754 the lawG3588G3551 hath dominion overG2961 a manG3588G444 asG3745 longG5550 asG3745 he livethG2198? 2ForG1063 the womanG1135 which hath an husbandG5220 is boundG1210 by the lawG3551 toG435 her husbandG435 so long as he livethG3588G2198; butG1161 ifG1437 the husbandG3588G435 be deadG599, she is loosedG2673 fromG575 the lawG3588G3551 ofG3588G435 her husbandG3588G435. 3SoG686 thenG3767 ifG1437, whileG2198 her husbandG3588G435 livethG2198, she be marriedG1096 toG435 anotherG2087 manG435, she shall be calledG5537 an adulteressG3428: butG1161 ifG1437 her husbandG3588G435 be deadG599, she isG1510 freeG1658 fromG575 that lawG3588G3551; so thatG3588 sheG846 isG1510 noG3361 adulteressG3428, though she be marriedG1096 toG435 anotherG2087 manG435. 4
WhereforeG5620, myG1473 brethrenG80, yeG4771 alsoG2532 are become deadG2289 to the lawG3588G3551 byG1223 the bodyG3588G4983 of ChristG3588G5547; thatG1519 yeG4771 should be marriedG1096 to anotherG2087, even to him who is raisedG1453 fromG1537 the deadG3498, thatG2443 we should bring forth fruitG2592 unto GodG3588G2316. 5
ForG1063 whenG3753 we wereG1510 inG1722 the fleshG3588G4561, the motionsG3588G3804 of sinsG3588G266, which wereG3588 byG1223 the lawG3588G3551, did workG1754 inG1722 ourG1473 membersG3588G3196 toG1519 bring forth fruitG2592 unto deathG3588G2288. 6ButG1161 nowG3570 we are deliveredG2673 fromG575 the lawG3588G3551, that being deadG599 whereinG1722G3739 we were heldG2722; thatG5620 weG1473 should serveG1398 inG1722 newnessG2538 of spiritG4151, andG2532 notG3756 in the oldnessG3821 of the letterG1121. 7WhatG5101 shall we sayG2046 thenG3767? Is the lawG3588G3551 sinG266? God forbidG3361G1096. NayG235, I hadG1097 notG3756 knownG1097 sinG3588G266, butG1487G3361 byG1223 the lawG3551: forG1063 I hadG1492 notG3756 knownG1492 lustG3588G1939, exceptG1487G3361 the lawG3588G3551 had saidG3004, Thou shaltG1937 notG3756 covetG1937. 8ButG1161 sinG3588G266, takingG2983 occasionG874 byG1223 the commandmentG3588G1785, wroughtG2716 inG1722 meG1473 all manner ofG3956 concupiscenceG1939. ForG1063 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 sinG266 was deadG3498. 9ForG1161 IG1473 was aliveG2198 withoutG5565 the lawG3551 onceG4218: butG1161 whenG2064 the commandmentG3588G1785 cameG2064, sinG3588G266 revivedG326, andG1161 IG1473 diedG599. 10AndG2532 the commandmentG3588G1785, whichG3588 was ordained toG1519 lifeG2222, IG1473 foundG2147 to be untoG1519 deathG2288.
